Mikee's 90g tank
 
Hi everyone! i dont post very often here but id like to share my tank with you all. I am taking everything real slow and adding very slowly so its nothing compared to what some of you have. I have had my ups and downs like many others but i think its slowly getting there :). The pics,

Your tanks looking awsome its nice to see more people from vernon getting into these hobbys... i used to live in vernon.

Also is that black and white poke a dot fish a marine betta?

If you want some awsome broms go to the art knapps in kelowna they have some really nice ones right now.
just picked up 2 hanging baskets with 7 to 8 brom pups in them.

did you get thoughs darts from someone in vernon?

Mikee 07-09-2008 04:24 AM

Thanks for the compliment and yes thats a Marine Betta :). I'll check out art knapp..i was thinking about adding a couple on the left side of the tank. I got my darts from http://www.understoryenterprises.com/.

Thanks for the link.

I should start a vivarium thread.

ice tank man i just bought the exact some tank with the mega overflow to. its an upgrade from a 55. how do you like the mega overflow?

Snappy 07-11-2008 03:06 PM

Hey that's quite a zoo you have going there, very cool. Your tank is coming along great and your corals look really healthy.

Mikee 07-12-2008 02:07 AM

pastout - i have no complaints on the mega overflow..i like them a lot. I only wish my tank was wider than 18" to prevent less deadspots near the back and well more front area for zoas + more swimming area.

I have learned a lot from when i first started going through almost everytype of algae..just constantly battling problems one after the other.. but with the help from these forums i have been able to solve most of them. I believe the more automated my system gets the better it gets. I will be switching out the Koralias for something smaller in size, with lots of flow, and controllable and that will be the new MP40W Vortech's gen2. Once my calcium reactor comes next week and have it dialed in hopefully that will maintain fairly stable levels if not i can always dose extra with topoff but i dont think i will have too because i do not have that many corals yet.. but one day im sure :). After the Vortech's come the last thing i think i will get equip wise is a Reefkeeper Elite controller or Profilux.

Snappy - Thanks! it means a lot coming from the master ;). I get that a lot from people telling me i have quite the zoo but you have to do something with 10 acres right? :).

I should also get a pic of the birdsnest..man that thing is growing fast..its true what people say either they do well and grow fast or they die haha.

That green montipora when i first bought it was really pale and in rough shape but the size was quite large to begin with so i bought it.. and its slowly coloring up. The center you can see it died there but it seems to be recovering quite nicely.

That last zoa pic of the green one (cant remember name) is now touching the glass :). I think you can tell with the FTS.
